Under construction. Dims is in active development and this page is a preview. The screenshots and clips below were captured live from Blender running the current Dims build.

A machined part in Blender with live Max X, Max Y and Max Z dimensions, and the LM Dims panel listing all dimensions — One click per axis: Auto Measure reads the selection and creates live dimensions — listed, colour-coded and editable in the LM Dims panel.

What Dims does

CAD-style dimensions. Linear, angle, radius, diameter, level and leader dimensions drawn in the viewport — with real drafting arrowheads and text.
Measure… or drive. Dimensions don't just report geometry: link them to parameters and drag a value to flex the mesh.
Auto Measure. Size along X/Y/Z, closest/furthest between objects and circular diameters — one click from the current selection.
Profiles constraint sketcher. Parametric 2D sketches with constraints, converted to native Blender meshes (shipped in the Dims bundle).
Assemble in 3D. SolveSpace-solved constraints between objects — coincident, distance, angle, parallel, perpendicular, symmetric, midpoint, ratio and more.
Bevel Edge included. The full LM Bevel Edge add-on ships in the Dims bundle and docks into the Dims sidebar as its own tab.
